Abstract A series of Bi3+ single-doped and Bi3+/Er3+ co-doped YNbO4 phosphors with various concentrations of Bi3+ ions were prepared by a conventional high temperature solid-state reaction method. The results of XRD and Rietveld refinement confirmed that monoclinic phase YNbO4 samples were achieved. The down-/up-conversion luminescence of Er3+ ions were investigated under the excitation of ultraviolet light (327 nm) and near infrared light (980 nm). Under 327 nm excitation, broad visible emission band from Bi3+ ions and characteristic green emission peaks from Er3+ ions were simultaneously observed, while only strong green emissions from Er3+ ions were detected upon excitation of 980 nm. Remarkable emission enhancement was observed in down-/up-conversion luminescence processes by introducing Bi3+ ions into Er3+-doped YNbO4 phosphors. By analyzing the laser working current dependent up-conversion luminescence spectra, two-photon processes were confirmed to be responsible for both the green and the red up-conversion emissions of Er3+ ion. The temperature sensing property of Er3+ was studied by using the temperature dependent up-conversion luminescence spectra and it was found that the temperature sensitivity was sensitive to the doping concentration of Bi3+ ions. By comparing the experimental values of the radiative transition rate ratio of the two green emission levels of Er3+ ions and the theoretical values calculated by Judd-Ofelt (J-O) theory, it was concluded that energy level splitting had significant influences on the temperature sensing property of Er3+ ions.

In this study, the up-conversion luminescence and optical temperature sensing properties of Ho3+/Tm3+/Yb3+-co-doped NaLuF4 phosphors were investigated. The visible (475, 540, and 650 nm) and near-infrared light (692 and 800 nm) radiated from 1Ho3+/4Tm3+/Yb3+-co-doped NaLuF4 phosphors were obvious enough for subsequent detection. The slopes in the lnI–lnP plot of the emissions located in the first biological window (650, 692, and 800 nm) were both ∼1.5, which mean that the power had little effect on the three fluorescence peak ratios. Based on the florescence intensity ratios (FIRs) of 650 and 692 nm, the relative sensing sensitivity reaches 0.029 K−1 (476 K). The relative sensing sensitivity based on the FIRs of 800 and 692 nm reaches 0.0076 K−1 (476 K). The results reveal that 1Ho3+/4Tm3+/Yb3+-co-doped NaLuF4 phosphors have potential applications in FIR-based temperature sensing in biological tissue for their high sensing sensitivity. In addition, the emission colors of the sample stabilize in the white light region as the temperature increased from 303 to 467 K, implying that it can also be used in white display.

AbstractFluoroindate glasses co-doped with Pr3+/Er3+ ions were synthesized and their near-infrared luminescence properties have been examined under selective excitation wavelengths. For the Pr3+/Er3+ co-doped glass samples several radiative and nonradiative relaxation channels and their mechanisms are proposed under direct excitation of Pr3+ and/or Er3+. The energy transfer processes between Pr3+ and Er3+ ions in fluoroindate glasses were identified. In particular, broadband near-infrared luminescence (FWHM = 278 nm) associated to the 1G4 → 3H5 (Pr3+), 1D2 → 1G4 (Pr3+) and 4I13/2 → 4I15/2 (Er3+) transitions of rare earth ions in fluoroindate glass is successfully observed under direct excitation at 483 nm. Near-infrared luminescence spectra and their decays for glass samples co-doped with Pr3+/Er3+ are compared to the experimental results obtained for fluoroindate glasses singly doped with rare earth ions.

niobium silicate glass with the mass composition of 35SiO2-25Nb2O5-20Na2O-10K2O- 7B2O3-3Eu2O3was synthesized by a traditional glass melting method. Glass ceramics containing Na2Nb8O21nanocrystals were prepared by heat treating the glass samples. The results of X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicated that the crystallite in the glass ceramics is Na2Nb8O21nanocrystals. The luminescence spectra showed the emission intensity of Eu3+doped glass ceramics was stronger than that of the glass matrix, and increased with the heat treatment temperature increasing..The transmittance of the glass ceramics can be up to 80% in the near-infrared light area.

A near Infrared (NIR) quantum cutting (QC) Sr3AlO4F:Tb3+,Yb3+phosphor was synthesized by the conventional high temperature solid-state reaction. The luminescence spectra both in visible (VIS) and NIR regions and decay lifetime curves of Tb3+have been measured to prove energy transfer (ET) from Tb3+to Yb3+. Quantum efficiency (QE) related to Yb3+concentration was calculated and the highest QE was found to be 135% hen Yb3+doped concentration at 20%. The present Tb3+and Yb3+co-doped Sr3AlO4F phosphor may be a promising candidate to modify the spectral of the solar light.
